If you needed more proof that they dont actually know what Conservatives are arguing and what their beliefs are, here you go.

Its about on par with that whole movie Dont Look Up, where the whole movie is based on "The Conservative response to a deadly meteor on its way to destroy the planet would be to ignore it and not look at it." (instead of, you know: nuke it, move it, maybe see if we can stop it and mine it, etc)

Or you know deal with the problem at all. The demoncrat solution to impending doom is “you’re going to die and that’s a good thing”

“you’re going to die and that’s a good thing”

More like "you're going to die so give us your taxes and your freedom and we'll stop you from dying."

I'm one of the few people on here who points out that climate change is real and is mostly caused by humans. As such, I actually do know what right-wingers believe on and I can tell you that that most right-wingers are wrong on Climate Change because what they believe "The Science" is what "Science Communicators" and "Environmentalists" have been putting out as propaganda for 50 years, and are reacting to that.

When the right is wrong, it is because they believe the left is right. Simple As.

And this is pretty common for most anti-Leftist radicalization. When 'the right' goes off the deep end, it's because they accept that what the Left is telling them is true, and are reacting to that. That is actually a rhetorical trap set-up by the activists themselves, and it happens with literally all Leftist narratives.

If you take the Leftist narrative at face-value, you have three options:

  • Reject their assertion: be declared ignorant and stupid because you are uninformed on the topic. Dissent is immediately rejected
  • Accept their assertion, but oppose it: you are admitting that you are the self-identified enemy they asserted in the first place
  • Accept their assertion, and endorse it: become one with the collective.

It can literally happen with any narrative:

"Feminism is about supporting women's rights to be treated as people":

  • Reject: "Obviously you're so stupid and uncaring you don't see what's happening to women every day."
  • Accept - oppose: "You agree, so you don't want to treat women as human."
  • Accept - affirm: "You are a feminist"

"Climate Change will kill the Earth in 12 years."

  • Reject: "Obviously you're stupid and haven't read the science"
  • Accept - oppose: "You agree that the Earth will die, and you want to kill it."
  • Accept - affirm: "You are an environmentalist."

"Ivermectin is horse paste and doesn't work on Covid"

  • Reject: "Obviously you're stupid and haven't read the science"
  • Accept - oppose: "You literally want to inject people with horse paste because you're a Covid denier."
  • Accept - affirm: "You Freaking Love Science"

It's literally only rhetorical warfare.

Literally no one said that. You are asserting that that humans are the only cause of all climate change at all times.

Shut up, stop being stupid.

If they knew what conservatives actually thought, they'd be conservatives.
